11. Chap. 5: Risk Assessment and Reevaluation Invokes EPA lead training and certification (402) rule, State / Tribal certification program authorizations, and LSHR Distinguishes risk assessment (RA) from environmental investigation Discusses composite sampling, but gives pragmatic reasons for not encouraging it Discusses random sampling of types of common areas 11

12. Chap. 5 (cont.) ASTM voluntary consensus standards for dust- lead and soil-lead sampling and analysis Revised model questionnaires and field sampling forms Mobile laboratories re NLLAP in EPA and State/Tribal certification programs Model RA report executive summary format RA report example (in Appendix 8.1) 12

14. Chap. 7: Lead-Based Paint Inspection Invokes EPA certification program, and State / Tribal certification program authorizations Notes that there are other analyses besides X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and the common lab methods (AAS, ICP-AES, ASV) that may be used by a laboratory with NLLAP recognition Emphasizes that results and LBP inspection / RA reports using an XRF without a current Performance Characteristic Sheet are invalid 14

15. Chap. 7 (cont.) Invokes ASTM voluntary consensus standards for sampling and analysis Updates recommended report summary paragraphs on disclosing where LBP was, and was not, identified As noted previously, LBP definition under collaborative review by EPA and HUD 15

16. Chap. 7 (cont.) Recommends that owners of LBP-free leasing properties retain reports for the life of the building, to prove easily that lease transactions are exempt from the Lead Disclosure Rule Recommends that other owners retain the reports as well Discusses mobile laboratories re NLLAP in EPA and State/Tribal certification programs 16

17. Chap. 7 (cont.) Discusses testing of non-paint surfaces, e.g., unpainted ceramic tile and porcelain bathtubs: Surfaces are not LBP, and not covered by the Lead Disclosure Rule Sometimes tested before renovation if they will be broken or crushed, re worker protection and clearance issues 17

20. Chap. 10: Housing Waste Reflects EPA waste rules and guidance, esp.: Policy clarification (2000) exempting most residential LBP waste generated by contractors as well as residents, but not concentrated lead waste (e.g., paint strippings, lead paint chips) Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) rule update (2003) codified this policy 20

21. Chap. 11: Interim Controls Reflects PRE, RRP and LSHR Provides updated step-by-step procedural guidance Reiterates HUD policy that, “Clearance is highly recommended … even when not required by regulation” of HUD or EPA, while noting the role and benefits of those regulations 21

22. Chap. 12: Abatement Reflects EPA 402 abatement rule and HUD LSHR Notes, re metal components, that factory applied primers in sound condition need not be abated or removed in an abatement project 22

23. Chap. 13: Encapsulation Notes that encapsulation: with a less-than-20 yr expected life, or without a 20 yr-or-longer encapsulation maintenance plan, is RRP / interim control, not abatement Notes that EPA volatile organic compounds emissions rule for architectural coatings may cover encapsulation; the determination is product-, method- and site-specific 23

24. Chap. 14: Cleaning Following Hazard Controls or Other Paint-Disturbing Work Updated to reflect methodology research results Discusses types of vacuums, use of TSP Discusses use of on-site preliminary dust testing (e.g., XRF, ASV) before clearance exam when achieving clearance known to be difficult (e.g., high dust-lead and paint-lead levels before work, surfaces not smooth & cleanable) 24

25. Chap. 15: Clearance Reflects EPA lead abatement regulations and HUD LSHR For certified dust sampling technicians: EPA RRP Rule allowing them to conduct optional clearance, and HUD LSHR allowing them to conduct clearance if exam approved and report signed by certified RA or LBPI, but not to randomly select testing units / locations 25

26. Chap. 15 (cont.) Use of voluntary consensus standard (ASTM) methods Composite sampling of dust not encouraged; procedures described for it if conducted Discusses use of on-site dust testing (e.g., XRF, ASV) for clearance exam by NLLAP-recognized mobile laboratory 26

27. Chap. 15 (cont.) Table of recommended minimum number and locations of dust samples for four clearance categories (interior with containment, without containment; worksite-only; exterior work) Updated discussion on option to determine if specified hazard control work was done Discussion and checklists for clearance report preparation 27
